New Year, More Opportunities

We are excited to continue to offer new thing, love, joy, memories, etc, and put that at the top of your list - how can you make this happen?


  • Grab Your Gear, Let's Dive In! For those that have completed the Champion Courses, we recommend Gear Days at least once a year to continue to practice and develop your skills. These are designed based on your specific community needs.


  • We're Getting Engaged! Designed for group settings, our Arts Engagement workshop guides the learners through recognizing what people with dementia CAN STILL do and adjusting experiences to meet these abilities based on their GEMSTM State.



  • Available 24/7 LAUNCHING SOON! We are working out some bugs and hoping to launch our ON-DEMAND courses next month. Stay tuned- some of our presentations will be available whenever you need it, 24/7!

I loved everything about this training. The insight that was taught was absolutely profound! This is a training that everyone can benefit from." ~Leslie

Understanding and Responding To the Expressions of Unmet Needs


Thurs, Feb 20 from 10:30-11:30am

Curative Connections - 2900 Curry Lane, Green Bay WI 54311


A-B-C- “All Behavior is Communication”

We all express our needs through words or actions. When dementia is in the picture, it can be harder to find the right, or any, words to communicate unmet needs. As care partners, we need to get curious about what people living with brain change are trying to express. What unmet need can we help to meet? In this workshop we discuss the tools we need to better respond to expressions.
